India, July 13 -- Actor and Andhra Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Pawan Kalyan underwent a three-and-a-half-hour shoulder surgery in Mumbai on Saturday after being diagnosed with severe rotator cuff injuries in both shoulders. In a statement shared on X, the Jana Sena Party said the surgery on his right shoulder was successful and that Pawan is recovering under medical supervision. "He has been shifted from the operation theatre to the recovery room and is currently coming out of the effects of anesthesia. Shri Pawan Kalyan remains under close medical supervision," a part of the statement in Telugu read. According to the party, the injuries were sustained in 2016 and worsened over the years during political rallies and election campaigns, where supporters often grabbed his hands. It added that Pawan delayed the procedure to complete his previously scheduled official commitments despite doctors advising immediate intervention. The party revealed that doctors also found an avulsion fracture in his shoulder, making the procedure more complex. The operation was conducted by a team led by orthopedic surgeon and sports medicine expert Dr Dinshaw Pardiwala. Explaining the decision to operate on only his right shoulder first, the Jana Sena Party shared, "To manage post-operative pain effectively, doctors advised against operating on both shoulders simultaneously." Surgery on his left shoulder is expected in about two months. HTC...
